Colonel Tom Parker – Tom Hanks
Many actors have altered their bodies for parts. In Baz Luhrmann’s 2020 musical biopic Elvis, he portrays the controversial manager of singer Elvis Presley, Colonel Tom Parker. Despite having the same name, they appear to be different people.
Colonel Tom Parker, the manager and founder of Elvis Presley fame, has his own distinct look. Hanks donned prosthetics as well as bodysuits to resemble Parker’s greater size for the part. There were various prosthetic makeups for each era in the film since it covers several decades.
